Al Barbarino Appearing at St. Francis of Assisi for Corpus Christi
Al will be accompanying the parish for the Corpus Christi procession immediately after the 12 Noon Mass.
Al Barbarino is a Lay Franciscan with the Franciscan Friars of the Renewal (the late Fr. Benedict Groeschel’s Community), and is a member of the Knights of Columbus. Throughout the years in this apostolate, he has recorded CDs/videos, and traveled around the world.
He speaks on our faith in a most practical, everyday level. Through all the support of his recordings, he helps the Franciscans at their homeless shelters, Croatian Relief International Outreach, and for the poor, wherever he sings. Al has worked in the New York City prisons for incarcerated youth as a counselor. He has many stories to share! Al’s recordings will be available after Mass.
Holy Week Schedule 2023
It is our sincere wish that the glorious Easter Season will bring every blessing and joy to each home in our Parish.
All Eyes were Smiling! A St. Patrick’s Day Dinner/Dance Recap
It was a grand evening for everyone, Irish or otherwise! 135 people attended the St. Patrick’s Day Dinner Dance at St. Francis on March 11, dancing to the music of Irish group Buoy 34, and entertained by the Irish step dancers from the Doherty/Petry School of Irish Dance, and the bagpipe tunes of Nicholas Minguillon. Judges Lisa Love and Liz Cook chose Carol Queally and Leslie Kulawicz the winners of the Soda Bread contest from among 10 entries.
